I totally disagree with the Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy, in that the Police Officer “Thug,” who has had a very checkered past to begin with, was not just “doing his job” when he shot and killed Great Patriot Ashli Babbitt at point blank range. Despite trying to keep him anonymous, shielded, and protected, this MISFIT proudly showed up on NBC Fake Nightly News “bragging” about the killing. He was not a hero but a COWARD, who wanted to show how tough he was. ASHLI BABBITT WAS MURDERED!!!

Shooting and killing her unarmed daughter wasn’t enough. The U.S. Capitol Police arrested Ashli Babbitt’s mother, Micki Witthoeft, today, on the anniversary of her daughter’s death. Micki’s crime? Jaywalking. Witthoeft and a few protesters were peacefully walking on the side of a Washington, D.C., street when a police car pulled up and demanded the small group get on the sidewalk. One officer got a little physical with Witthoeft. After being told by a cop there would be “no discussions,” Witthoeft turned around so the officer could cuff her. FACT-O-RAMA! BLM and Antifa burned Washington, D.C., for four nights. I was...

Jack Posobiec 🇺🇸 @JackPosobiec Ashli Babbitt’s Shooter Admitted He Didn’t Know If She Was Threat, But Was Cleared Without Criminal Investigation

The officer who shot and killed a woman during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot has come forward after months of secrecy surrounding his identity due to reported death threats and heated Republican rhetoric about his actions. Lt. Michael Leroy Byrd, a 28-year-veteran of the force, told NBC News on Thursday that it has been “frightening” to receive death threats for doing his job. “They talked about, you know, killing me, cutting off my head, you know, very vicious and cruel things. … There were some racist attacks as well,” he said, calling them “disheartening because I know I was doing...

For more than seven months, the U.S. Capitol Police officer who shot and killed Ashli Babbitt, an unarmed protester climbing through a broken window in a hallway of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, has remained anonymous. Though his name was known to U.S. Capitol Police, congressional staffers and federal investigations, no one would divulge it. The secrecy fueled months of online speculation. Babbitt's family alleged a coverup.... ..."The U.S. Congress wants to protect this man. He's got friends in high places and they want to protect him," said Maryland attorney Terry Roberts, who represents the family....Roberts told Zenger Wednesday...

Newly resurfaced video footage appears to confirm speculation that the man who shot and killed Capitol protester Ashli Babbitt was Capitol Hill Lt. Michael Leroy Byrd, who was NOT assigned to protect Vice President Mike Pence, as reported by mainstream media outlets. The video footage of the black man in the suit has been extensively archived on the internet, and it plainly contradicts mainstream media accounts, citing anonymous intelligence community sources, which claim that a Secret Service member assigned to Mike Pence shot Babbitt. Independent journalist Tayler Hansen stated that Capitol Hill Lt. Michael Leroy Byrd was the one who...

A picture is worth a thousand words. So these two pictures tell you two thousand words worth of Ashley Babbit’s. He is demonstrably incompetent. There are four critical rules for handling any firearm, especially a pistol: Treat every gun as if it is loaded until you inspect it to ensure there is no ammunition in the chamber. Always point the gun in a safe direction (in other words, do not point the gun at anything or anyone you are not prepared to kill or destroy). ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to fire. Know your...

To quote, former Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld: This is a "known known" (by the swamp). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There_are_known_knowns Why is this NOT public information?

One of the reasons that conspiracy theories and internet sleuthing are on the rise is because there’s a critical breakdown in trust between the public and the government. That breakdown can be organic and it can also be manufactured. Either way, it breeds distrust, suspicion, and drives a frenetic need in the public to uncover the “truth.” We saw that happen in 2016 with the left’s obsession over all things “Russia.” Those conspiracy theories ran amok for four-plus years, and were fueled by political leaders and the mainstream media which convinced a large swath of the public that Vladimir Putin...

Opinion The chief medical examiner in Washington, D.C., confirmed last Wednesday the causes and manners of death of four people who died during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot Two of the four deaths were ruled natural, one an accident and the fourth a homicide, WTOP reported. Ashli Babbitt is the person that was murdered. Image from the report below: This made Babbit main news amongst Trump supporters and speculation started again about Babbit’s shooter. The Biden Justice Department announced today it has closed the investigation into the homicide death of Trump supporter Ashli Babbitt that took place inside the Capitol...
